I don't know, but would it be something analogous to this rewrting of the Pledge of Allegiance (used by Bertell Ollman to make a point about the right-wing fringe in the U.S.): "I pledge allegiance to the United States of America, and to the flag for which it stands." Thaat is, a mere sign, the Flag, is taken by super-patriots as a wonder in and of itself. I doubt that this answers Terry's qquestion, but I'll throw it out. Carrol
